< 1 Samuel 1 >

1 And there is a certain man of Ramathaim-Zophim, of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name [is] Elkanah, son of Jeroham, son of Elihu, son of Tohu, son of Zuph, and Ephrathite,
Oasr sie mwet su pangpang Elkanah in sruf lal Ephraim, su muta in Ramah in eol Ephraim. El wen natul Jeroham, su ma natul Elihu ac ma in sou lal Tohu, su ma in ota lal Zuph.
2 and he hath two wives, the name of the one [is] Hannah, and the name of the second Peninnah, and Peninnah hath children, and Hannah hath no children.
Oasr mutan luo kial Elkanah: ineltal pa Hannah ac Peninnah. Oasr tulik natul Peninnah, a wangin tulik natul Hannah.
3 And that man hath gone up out of his city from time to time, to bow himself, and to sacrifice, before Jehovah of Hosts, in Shiloh, and there [are] two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to Jehovah.
Yac nukewa Elkanah el ac som liki acn Ramah nu Shiloh in alu ac orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD Kulana. Hophni ac Phinehas, wen luo natul Eli, eltal mwet tol lun LEUM GOD we.
4 And the day cometh, and Elkanah sacrificeth, and he hath given to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions,
Kais sie pacl Elkanah el oru mwe kisa lal, el ac sang ip se nu sel Peninnah ac kais sie ip nu sin wen ac acn natul.
5 and to Hannah he giveth a certain portion — double, for he hath loved Hannah, and Jehovah hath shut her womb;
Elkanah el ne arulana lungse Hannah yohk, tuh el ac sang ip sefanna nu sel ke sripen LEUM GOD El kaliya insial tuh in wangin tulik natul.
6 and her adversity hath also provoked her greatly, so as to make her tremble, for Jehovah hath shut up her womb.
Peninnah el lungse angnol Hannah ke sripen God El aktalapyal, oru arulana toasr insial Hannah kac.
7 And so he doth year by year, from the time of her going up into the house of Jehovah, so it provoketh her, and she weepeth, and doth not eat.
Lumah se inge orek yac nu ke yac — pacl nukewa ma elos ac som nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD, Peninnah el ac aktoasryal Hannah, oru el tung ac tia pac lungse mongo.
8 And Elkanah her husband saith to her, 'Hannah, why weepest thou? and why dost thou not eat? and why is thy heart afflicted? am I not better to thee than ten sons?'
Elkanah, mukul tumal, el ac fahk, “Hannah, efu ku kom tung? Efu ku kom tia mongo? Efu ku kom toasr pacl nukewa? Ya nga tia wo liki wen singoul nu sum?”
9 And Hannah riseth after eating in Shiloh, and after drinking, and Eli the priest is sitting on the throne by the side-post of the temple of Jehovah.
Sie pacl ah tukun elos mongo ac nim tari in lohm sin LEUM GOD in acn Shiloh, Hannah el tuyak ac fahkulak sifacna ye mutun LEUM GOD. Eli, mwet tol, el muta ke nien muta lal sisken sru in mutunoa ke tempul lun LEUM GOD.
10 And she is bitter in soul, and prayeth unto Jehovah, and weepeth greatly,
Hannah el arulana supwar, ac el arulana tung ac pre nu sin LEUM GOD.
11 and voweth a vow, and saith, 'Jehovah of Hosts, if Thou dost certainly look on the affliction of Thy handmaid, and hast remembered me, and dost not forget Thy handmaid, and hast given to Thy handmaid seed of men — then I have given him to Jehovah all days of his life, and a razor doth not go up upon his head.'
Na el oru sie wulela na ku ac fahk, “LEUM GOD kulana, liyeyu, mwet kulansap lom! Liye mwe keok luk ac esamyu! Nikmet mulkinyula! Kom fin ase sie wen nutik, nga ac fah kisakunulot nu sum tuh elan sie mwet Nazirite in moul lal nufon. El ac fah tia nim wain ku kutena mwe nim ku, oayapa ac fah tiana kalkulla insifal.”
12 And it hath been, when she multiplied praying before Jehovah, that Eli is watching her mouth,
Hannah el pre ke pacl na loes se, ac Eli el ngetang liye oalul.
13 and Hannah, she is speaking to her heart, only her lips are moving, and her voice is not heard, and Eli reckoneth her to be drunken.
Hannah el pre ke insial. Ngoasrol mukuikui a wangin pusracl, oru Eli el nunku mu Hannah el sruhi.
14 And Eli saith unto her, 'Until when are thou drunken? turn aside thy wine from thee.'
Ac Eli el fahk nu sel Hannah, “Kom ac sruhi nwe ngac? Tui. Nimet sifilpa nimnim.”
15 And Hannah answereth and saith, 'No, my lord, A woman sharply pained in spirit I [am], and wine and strong drink I have not drunk, and I pour out my soul before Jehovah;
Hannah el fahk, “Leum se, nga tia nimnim ac nga tia sruhi. Nga keoklana, ac nga pre ac asang ngunik nufon nu sin LEUM GOD ke mwe keok luk.
16 put not thy handmaid before a daughter of worthlessness, for from the abundance of my meditation, and of my provocation, I have spoken hitherto.'
Nikmet nunku mu nga sie mutan koluk. Nga pre ke sripen nunak keok lun insiuk.”
17 And Eli answereth and saith, 'Go in peace, and the God of Israel doth give thy petition which thou hast asked of Him.'
Na Eli el fahk, “Som in misla, ac lela tuh God lun Israel Elan asot mwe siyuk lom an.”
18 And she saith, 'Let thy handmaid find grace in thine eyes;' and the woman goeth on her way, and eateth, and her countenance hath not been [sad] for it any more.
Ac Hannah el fahk, “Lela tuh kulang lom in ouinge nu sik pacl e nukewa.” Ouinge el som ac eis mwe mongo, ac el tia sifil toasr.
19 And they rise early in the morning, and bow themselves before Jehovah, and turn back, and come in unto their house in Ramah, and Elkanah knoweth Hannah his wife, and Jehovah remembereth her;
Toangna in lotu tok ah Elkanah ac sou lal elos tukakek, ac tukun elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD, elos folokla nu lohm selos in acn Ramah. Elkanah el motul yorol Hannah, mutan kial, ac LEUM GOD El topuk pre lal Hannah.
20 and it cometh to pass, at the revolution of the days, that Hannah conceiveth, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Samuel, 'for, from Jehovah I have asked him.'
Na Hannah el pitutuyak ac el oswela sie wen. Ac el sang inel Samuel, ac fahk, “Mweyen nga tuh siyuk sin LEUM GOD kacl.”
21 And the man Elkanah goeth up, and all his house, to sacrifice to Jehovah the sacrifice of the days, and his vow.
Ke sun pacl fal, Elkanah ac sou lal elos sifil som nu Shiloh in oru mwe kisa lal nu sin LEUM GOD oana ke el oru in yac nukewa, ac oayapa in kisakin ma el wulela kac.
22 And Hannah hath not gone up, for she said to her husband, 'Till the youth is weaned — then I have brought him in, and he hath appeared before the face of Jehovah, and dwelt there — unto the age.'
Tusruktu Hannah el tia wi som se ingan. El fahk nu sin mukul tumal, “Ke pacl se na ma tulik se inge liktitla, na nga fah usalla nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD, ac el ac fah mutana we in moul lal nufon.”
23 And Elkanah her husband saith to her, 'Do that which is good in thine eyes; abide till thy weaning him; only, Jehovah establish His word;' and the woman abideth and suckleth her son till she hath weaned him,
Elkanah el fahk nu sel, “Oru oana kom nunku mu fal. Muta nwe ke kom liktitella tufah kom usalla. Ma se na, lela LEUM GOD Elan oru tuh kom in akpwayeye wulela lom.” Na Hannah el muta liyaung tulik sac nwe ke el liktitella.
24 and she causeth him to go up with her when she hath weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and she bringeth him into the house of Jehovah at Shiloh, and the youth [is but] a youth.
Ke tulik sac liktitla, Hannah el usalla nu Shiloh, wi cow mukul yac tolu matwa, ac sie pak in flao, ac sie pak orekla ke kulun kosro sessesla ke wain. El usal Samuel ke el srakna fusr, ac som nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD in acn Shiloh.
25 And they slaughter the bullock, and bring in the youth unto Eli,
Ac ke elos uniya cow soko ah, elos usalla Samuel nu yorol Eli.
26 and she saith, 'O, my lord, thy soul liveth! my lord, I [am] the woman who stood with thee in this [place], to pray unto Jehovah;
Na Hannah el fahk nu sel Eli, “Leum se, ya kom esamyu? Nga pa mutan se kom tuh liye tu inse inge ac pre nu sin LEUM GOD.
27 for this youth I prayed, and Jehovah doth give to me my petition which I asked of Him;
Nga tuh siyuk sel ke tulik se inge, na pa El ase ma nga siyuk sel.
28 and also I have caused him to be asked for Jehovah, all the days that he hath lived — he is asked for Jehovah;' and he boweth himself there before Jehovah.
Ke ma inge nga kisakunulang nu sin LEUM GOD. El ac fah ma lun LEUM GOD in moul lal nufon.” Na elos alu nu sin LEUM GOD we.
